Genius.
Mack Hansen made his return for Ireland in some style last night, scoring three tries in the opening 27 minutes in a stunning display at fullback.
The Connacht man has struggled with injury over the last couple of months and was raring to go as he took on his country of birth, Australia, at the Aviva Stadium.
One thing, however, people noticed about Hansen last night is the fact that he was wearing two different coloured boots for the game.
Hansen was asked about it in his post-match interview with TNT Sports and he gave a brilliant answer.
“Canterbury told me to do that, so people have to buy two boots now,” Hansen said with a smile.
“It’s the name of the game.
“It’s genius marketing from them, isn’t it?”
Never change, Mack. Never change.
